It all depends on where you live...

It is often claimed that it depends on where you live in the UK for Autism and Asperger diagnosis and services.Observant Teachers and professionals can recognise an Asperger or Autistic child in one area, so a result, that person receives the support and understanding they so need and deserve. Yet if that same person lived elsewhere, there could be a very strong chance that they wouldn't be diagnosed until much later. Services are provided with regards to drop-ins, socialisation and support in one region, and yet not in another. This must change, and it must change now. With regards to services and support, there has to be all or nothing in every area of the UK. NOTHING BUT.
